  • Understand the risks
    The first step in managing cyber risks is understanding the threats your organisation faces.
  • Avoid tick-box compliance
    Strong risk management goes beyond compliance; it should give insight into the health of your organization.
  • Perform regular risk assessments
    You should have assurance that your organisation has chosen a method or framework for managing risk that fits with its broader business and technology needs. It’s also critical to evaluate any changes to risk at least twice a year.
  • Integrate cybersecurity risk management
    Cyber security risk should be integrated within your overall approach to risk management, and not be dealt with as a standalone area.
  • Adopt a risk-based approach
    To decrease enterprise risk, leaders must identify and focus on the elements of cyber risk to target in advance of an attack.
